  1. Don't forget about driving ranges. You were asked about balls in the air, not balls in the air on a course. And talk the answer out...make no assumptions without telling the interviewer first.
  2. I would be thrilled if Grimm was our next coach. The Steelers know how to find coaches....the 3 finalists were Whisenhut, Tomlin and Grimm. Safe to say at least 2 of those guys have worked out pretty well, why not take our shot with the 3rd one.
  3. Enjoy. http://thedanzatap.com/?p=10840 Also, a couple of great links from the comment section... George Brett and the Shart Upper Decker
  4. Now the EPA is threatening Congress? Truly precious! I really don't like the sound of "command-and-control," and think if the EPA does this, Congress should vote immediately to defund the entire agency. F*$% em' http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/12/09...tion-emissions/
  5. Here's the quote... If Polian speaks, I'm willing to accept it as if it was handed down from Mt. Sinai on stone tablets. No to Tebow before the 3rd-4th round. I'm more of a Locker/Clausen guy anyway.
  6. Grimm or Zimmer would be fine with me if we went the coordinator route.
  7. And I have no idea how this survives a court challenge. Either you regulate everything because CO2 is a hazardous air pollutant or you regulate nothing. Nowhere does it say you only regulate businesses producing 25,000 tons of it a year. Either they back off or everything gets regulated (including your trips to work, the food store, etc.), at which point every incumbent in either party loses his/her job.
  8. LOL! If this inetresting article is to be believed, Uchitel and Kalika Moquin acted, basically as pimps for Tiger. Maybe I should have ste the O/U at 100!
  9. Up to 11 now....I'm setting the O/U at an even 18. Any takers?
  10. If the EPA sucessfully declares carbon emmisions a threat to the health of Americans and must be regulated by the EPA, say hello to another 5% in unemployment and bye-bye to job creation. I'm not certain the EPA could survive a contitutional challenge, but it may take and Act of Congress to overrule the EPA. http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedc...vLuVLgKVygMZ8oL http://www.businessinsider.com/gartman-the...k-havoc-2009-12
  11. I would not have a problem with Zimmer (or Grimm). I had heard (read somewhere?) that Zimmer was viewed by many as very much a young Parcells-type. If we go the young coach route, however, we need a real NFL GM.
  12. Thats one of those "now, you know you are old" quotes...Skydome...replaced? Damn, I remember going in the early 90s for baseball games with my grandfather, big improvement over Exhibition Stadium. It was brand new and gorgeous. Always thought I'd like to get one of those hotel rooms that overlooks the field someday. To think they are talking about replacing it....I definately feel old.
  13. Thats why the pick was arrogant, just like Willis McGahee was an arrogant pick when you already have Travis. Yes, he'll need time to develop and will not contribute much for a 1-2 years. Meanwhile, we have a massive hole at LT after trading Jason peters and a decent guy on the board to fill it...Michael Oher. Imagine if our young OL included Levitre (who made big strides already this year), Wood (who was developing) and Oher...pretty bright future right? Instead Maybin has been watching Kelsey/Denney all year...real productive.
  14. And Cory Rist is the best looking yet. She's friggin hot.
  15. They have been talking about a transaction tax for decades, its not going to happen. As for the "carried inetrest" provision, it was never intended to cover 2 and 20. So, I really don't see a big problem there.
  16. No arguments from me. Let em all go to defined contribution plans (401ks) rather than defined benefit plans like pensions.
  17. True, and I wish that all would. Unfortunately, I'm too cynical to ever think thats going to happen.
  18. Absolutely right. And I'm not saying this proposal that passed is perfect, but at least its a start.
  19. Don't misunderstand me, I said "for most," not "all." There are folks with legitimate weight issues due to neurophysical problems. However, *again* for most *again* the effects can be greatly mitigated by consuming less calories than one burns in any given day. Furthermore, eating healthy all natural food rather than processed crap full of additives and preservatives will help tremendously. Not saying every girl will be a size 6 or every dude an adonis, but those simple actions will greatly reduce the chances anyone gets fat and signficantly help an individual lose weight. I am certainly not discounting the scientific findings of a researcher other than saying "don't" eat that stuff.
  20. I disagree. For most, it is pretty simple. Don't consume more calories than you burn in a day. Ergo, you will not get fat. If you have a sedentary office job and do not work out, adjust your eating habits accordingly. Instead of hitting the vending machine, have an apple. Instead of a huge dinner, have a decent sized lunch so that you have time to burn off the calories. Its not rocket science.
  21. Yes. Thats an excellent idea. Hell, I usually pay extra for extra legroom and an aisle seat just to be comfortable on airlines. My money, my choice. No way in hell I'm dealing with encroachment from Fatty McButterpants next to me.
  22. About time. Dems losing Nassau and Westchester 1 year after the Dem sweep should be a wake-up call. As for Reps, I hope they do not read too much into the wins; if they don't cut taxes, they'll be out too. I think a lot of incumbants will be out the door in 2010. People don't want to deal with higher taxes. If Congress raises, look out.
  23. OK, you believe quasi-sober "accounts," I'll believe my own eyes and ears who have interacted with them on multiple occasions.
  24. He doesn't need permission. The Freedom to Display the Flag Act provides that "A condominium association, cooperative association, or residential real estate management association may not adopt or enforce any policy, or enter into any agreement, that would restrict or prevent a member of the association from displaying the flag of the United States on residential property within the association with respect to which such member has a separate ownership interest or a right to exclusive possession or use." I'd argue that even being asked to fill out a form would "restrict or prevent " the display. I'd go even futher and say that a flagpole in front of your two story townhouse that is less than the total height of the building is reasonable within the act (whereas an 80' pole in front of a 25' townhouse is not). Hell, if I had a VA law license, I'd take his case for free. Until I won on his behalf of course, then I'd bill the association my fees (based on my NYC law firm rates). F*$# 'em.
